utility-pm-workflow-builder
Guides a contributor from a workflow idea to a complete Workflow Implementation Packet (draft workflow file, draft workflow command, cross-cutting update checklist) in a staging area for review. Runs overlap analysis against the existing workflows with a Why Gate, then helps select and sequence skills with authored handoffs. Use when creating a new multi-skill workflow or promoting a repeated ad-hoc chain into a durable one. To build a single skill instead, use utility-pm-skill-builder; to run a sequence without authoring anything, use the chain command or utility-pm-workflow-orchestrator.
npx skills add product-on-purpose/pm-skills --skill utility-pm-workflow-builder --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
<!-- PM-Skills | https://github.com/product-on-purpose/pm-skills | Apache 2.0 --> # PM Workflow Builder This skill creates new multi-skill workflows for the pm-skills library. It produces a Workflow Implementation Packet - a draft `_workflows/<name>.md` file, a draft `commands/workflow-<name>.md` command, and the cross-cutting update checklist - in a staging area for review before promotion to canonical locations. The builder authors; it never executes a chain and it never promotes its own output. ## When to Use - You have an idea for a new multi-skill workflow ("I need a workflow for quarterly business reviews") - You know the skills you want to chain and want them captured durably ("chain competitive-analysis, experiment-results, pivot-decision") - A `/chain` run (orchestrator Mode B) proved reusable and its completion output suggested promoting the chain to a durable workflow; hand this skill the exact chain expression from that suggestion ## When NOT to Use - To run a sequence once without authoring anything -> use the `/chain` command or `utility-pm-workflow-orchestrator` directly - To build or modify a single skill -> use `utility-pm-skill-builder`, `utility-pm-skill-validate

What does the utility-pm-workflow-builder skill do?
Guides a contributor from a workflow idea to a complete Workflow Implementation Packet (draft workflow file, draft workflow command, cross-cutting update checklist) in a staging area for review. Runs overlap analysis against the existing workflows with a Why Gate, then helps select and sequence skills with authored handoffs. Use when creating a new multi-skill workflow or promoting a repeated ad-hoc chain into a durable one. To build a single skill instead, use utility-pm-skill-builder; to run a sequence without authoring anything, use the chain command or utility-pm-workflow-orchestrator.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add product-on-purpose/pm-skills --skill utility-pm-workflow-builder --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From product-on-purpose/pm-skills, a repository with 518 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
